We are excited to announce that we have hit an incredible milestone in our 2026 Colour Fun Run fundraising journey! Thanks to the hard work and generosity of our students, whānau, and friends, we have already raised over $6000 toward our goal.

To celebrate this achievement, things got a little... messy! True to his word, our very own Mr McGrath stepped up to the stage under the bubble to reward our efforts. In front of a cheering crowd, lucky students got the chance to douse him in buckets of multi-coloured slime.

A huge thank you to all the students and classes involved who are doing the mahi in gaining sponsors. At the time of writing, the top student fundraiser is Aesha Astha with a whopping $750 raised and the top class is 9L, Miss Chatsunthornwong's Team, with $1566!

Let’s keep the momentum going! Head over to our fundraising page to donate if you can. There will be more sliming victims as we reach our milestones!

Well done, Waitākere College!
